Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!

+		High Precision Event Timer Driver for Linux
+
+The High Precision Event Timer (HPET) hardware is the future replacement for the 8254 and Real
+Time Clock (RTC) periodic timer functionality.  Each HPET can have up two 32 timers.  It is possible
+to configure the first two timers as legacy replacements for 8254 and RTC periodic.  A specification
+done by INTEL and Microsoft can be found at http://www.intel.com/labs/platcomp/hpet/hpetspec.htm.
+
+The driver supports detection of HPET driver allocation and initialization of the HPET before the
+driver module_init routine is called.  This enables platform code which uses timer 0 or 1 as the
+main timer to intercept HPET initialization.  An example of this initialization can be found in
+arch/i386/kernel/time_hpet.c.
+
+The driver provides two APIs which are very similar to the API found in the rtc.c driver.
+There is a user space API and a kernel space API.  An example user space program is provided
+below.

+The kernel API has three interfaces exported from the driver:
+
+	hpet_register(struct hpet_task *tp, int periodic)
+	hpet_unregister(struct hpet_task *tp)
+	hpet_control(struct hpet_task *tp, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)
+
+The kernel module using this interface fills in the ht_func and ht_data members of the
+hpet_task structure before calling hpet_register.  hpet_control simply vectors to the hpet_ioctl
+routine and has the same commands and respective arguments as the user API.  hpet_unregister
+is used to terminate usage of the HPET timer reserved by hpet_register.
